Accordingly, at each diabetic clinic appointment, the endocrinologist reviews the patient's glucose measurements and insulin doses to determine whether the insulin dosage needs to be adjusted. Unfortunately, limited appointment availability restricts insulin dosages adjustments to once every several months. Furthermore, as a result of the limited time allotted for each patient, new dosing recommendations are based on a review of only the most recent measurements. This drawback may be one of the chief causes of suboptimal management, with merely 38% of diabetic patients able to achieve proper control and mitigate detrimental complications.
